Chapter 55: Best policy, middle policy

Views:

Seeing that Luo Daheng had finally arrived, those county student members immediately went up to him. Someone blamed Tycoon Tian Luo for being late, and some even said impatiently: "We have been waiting for you for a long time, can we start now?"

"Come on, come on, I have something to say!"

As Luo Daheng said, he moved his schoolbag in front of him, felt in the schoolbag, and pulled out a brick.

All the scholars asked cautiously: "What do you want to do?"

The tycoon laughed dryly and said, "Sorry, I took the wrong one."

The tycoon stuffed the bricks back into his schoolbag, took out the inkstone, looked around, saw a large rock not far in front of him, the surface of the stone was very smooth due to the wind and rain, he walked over, put down the inkstone, and took out the stone from his schoolbag. A booklet, open the booklet, press the corner of the booklet with an inkstone.

These talented people should say that they don't read books, but in fact, those who dance and write can still read some characters. On the contrary, Luo Daheng almost never saw him mention a pen in the county school. Now, these talented scholars were full of murderous intent with their knives and swords in hand. Luo Daheng, who had never touched pen and ink, picked up his pen, and all the talented scholars felt a sense of confusion in their hearts.

All the scholars stared blankly at the tycoon's movements, and saw him take out a writing brush unhurriedly, uncapped the pen cap, smoothed the strokes with his saliva, opened the inkstone, held the pen in his hand, and said to the scholars: Anyone who wants to participate in the duel, come and sign up. As for the duel, we will study it in detail later."

All the scholars looked at each other, and one of them couldn't help asking: "Sign up? What name should you sign up for? Anyone who wants to participate, just participate! Do you need to study something about duels? It's really unreasonable, this is a duel! Of course, you can do whatever you are good at." Hit, hit until the opponent is convinced, and fight until you die!"

The corners of the tycoon’s mouth almost turned to the bottom of his ears: “Why don’t I say that you are ignorant, is it a literary fight or a martial fight? What do I, a notary, do? The number of people participating in the duel is uncertain, so how can we ensure that our duel is fair and open?"

All the scholars were baffled, and someone reluctantly asked: "Then tell me, what should we do?"

The tycoon smiled, pointed at him and said, "Children can be taught, that's right! First of all, both of you have to come to me, a notary, to sign up. Who of you will participate, and the number of participants on both sides should be equal. There is an internal selection process first... ”

Before Luo Daheng finished speaking, all the scholars were dissatisfied. Someone shouted: "Why? I have many brothers and many friends, no way? They are willing to help me, no way?"

Someone else yelled: "Don't you just rely on your large number of people to be domineering all the time? If you hadn't had a large number of people, I would have killed you long ago."

The two sides spoke to each other, and the more they talked, the more angry they became, and they raised their knives and guns and were about to rush forward. Luo Daheng stood aside holding a writing brush as if he had nothing to do, until the two groups that were about to clash were separated by other scholars. The tycoon sighed: "Now you know the importance of fairness, don't you? If there is no limit on the number of people, even if you have fought today, the loser will still be dissatisfied."

Not far away, Ye Xiaotian and Luo Xiaoye have come together.

Luo Xiaoye complained in a low voice: "Ai Dianshi, why did you come here so slowly?"

Ye Xiaotian smiled wryly: "Isn't it all because of that living treasure?"

Luo Xiaoye glanced at the tycoon, shook his head and said, "Don't mention this matter, how do you plan to stop the duel between the two sides?"

Ye Xiaotian said: "There is no way to make a decision right now, of course we are playing by ear. But I think these scholars are actually just second-generation ancestors who don't know what to do and who are spoiled by their families. The so-called duel is not because there is a real relationship between them. What kind of unresolvable enmity is nothing more than an emotional dispute caused by a quarrel. I think... Since the tycoon is a notary, we might as well use the tycoon as a notary to induce them and give them a step up. Solving problems with weapons is the best policy."

Over there, Luo Daheng said plausibly: "Your tribes are big or small, the small ones are just a few hundred people, and the many are tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands. If you don't limit the number of people and let you call your friends, what's the point of this battle?" Fight? Just stand up and count the heads, whoever is less will admit defeat!"

It made sense for all the scholars to think about it, so they all nodded and said: "Success, this one is up to you. What rules are there?"

Luo Daheng said: "The second thing is to determine the content of the duel? After thinking hard last night, I finally thought of a few methods that can not only reflect the true skills of the students, but also easily determine the winner. Please refer to them for details." one time."

All the scholars gathered around with great interest, and said in one voice, "Quickly say it."

Luo Daheng followed Ye Xiaotian's suggestion on the way up the mountain, raised a short and fat finger, and said: "The first item, let's climb the mountain. You all go down the mountain, run up from the bottom of the mountain, which side will come up first?" There are more people, whichever side wins..."

Before Daheng Luo finished speaking, there was already a lot of shouting and cursing. The tycoon had no choice but to raise his voice and shouted: "For the second item, have you seen that stone? Let's lift the stone in a competition. Whoever can't lift it will win." Admit defeat! In the third item, let's climb trees, look at those towering trees over there... "

"fart!"

"Are you playing us like monkeys?"

"Bastard, how can there be such a duel in the world!"

"Beat him! Beat him! Kill this bastard!"

The tycoon was submerged in the crowd, and he argued with himself: "Don't do anything! I've said it for everyone's reference. If you don't agree, you don't agree. Do you want to beat the notary? My Maya..."

Luo Xiaoye said to Ye Xiaotian: "I'm afraid your best strategy won't work."

Ye Xiaotian frowned and said: "If the best strategy doesn't work, then we have to adopt the middle strategy."

Luo Xiaoye also frowned, and said, "What is your middle strategy...?"

※※※

"Stop everything!"

Ye Xiaotian yelled loudly, came out of the crowd, and pushed away the scholars who surrounded Luo Daheng fiercely, and stood in front of Luo Daheng. Luo Daheng tidied up his messy clothes, straightened his schoolbag, and said unhappily, "These people are really barbaric!"

Ye Xiaotian looked stern, and shouted loudly: "You are all the nephews of the leaders of the mountain tribes. In the future, you will either be a chieftain, an official, or an elder in the clan. You are all people who want to do big things! You want to do big things! People, but they can only fight and kill, can it work?"

All the scholars said loudly: "Of course!"

Ye Xiaotian's tone was suffocated, and he said helplessly: "I can't fight, of course not! But I can only fight, obviously I can't! If I can't fight, I'm a softie! I can only fight, That's a reckless man! Even Meng Zhang Fei knows to use a trick in front of Dangyang Bridge, you say, what big things can a person who can only shout and kill?"

The scholars all fell silent. Seeing that they seem to have listened to it, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but secretly rejoiced, and hurriedly hit the rails while it was hot: "Your family elders sent you to the county school just to let you be gentle and gentle, but when you encounter problems, you never go to the county school." If you wonder if you can solve it without resorting to force, isn't that a disappointment to the elders?"

All the talents looked at each other in blank dismay. Ye Xiaotian said again: "Also, the elders of your family sent you to the county school to study. Besides wanting you to increase your wisdom, there is obviously a deeper intention. Have you never realized it with your heart?"

This sentence really aroused the curiosity of all the scholars, and some people couldn't help asking: "There is a deeper intention, what is the intention?"

Ye Xiaotian said: "You are the nephews of the tribal leader. You will lead the people of your own clan in the future. At that time, you will naturally have to deal with the government and other tribes. You are now studying in the county school and have fame. With people from the local government... such as this official, you can establish a deep friendship.

If you become classmates, then you will have a classmate friendship with each other. In the future, when you become tribal leaders and elders, you can lead your tribe, watch and help each other with your classmates, and live in harmony. Wouldn’t the world be peaceful? ? Your elders are well-intentioned! "

There was still silence in front of him. Seeing that everyone finally calmed down, Ye Xiaotian couldn't help letting out a sigh of relief, and secretly gave Luo Xiaoye, Li Yuncong and others who were standing behind the crowd a smug look: "His best strategy is naturally to show affection." , Metaphorical psychology. Of course, this is only half of the middle strategy, and with a dose of strong medicine, you can call it a day and go back to the city."

Ye Xiaotian said earnestly and earnestly: "There is an old saying that those who work hard rule people, and those who work hard rule people. You go to the county school to learn the art of working hard! Now, put down your knives and try to solve problems with wisdom. If you insist on not listening, have you seen it?"

Ye Xiaotian stretched out his hand and pointed to the officers, soldiers, policemen, and Min Zhuang on the periphery: "I am the official history of this county, and I will never sit back and watch you act recklessly without the law! If someone insists on not listening to my good advice, I will have no choice but to It's business as usual, arrest him and bring him to justice! That's all I said, so don't blame someone for his unpredictability!"

After Ye Xiaotian finished speaking, he shook his sleeves fiercely, and glanced coldly at the faces of these second-generation ancestors, hoping to see a trace of shame or even panic on their faces, but unfortunately, the faces in front of him were all expressionless, Ye Xiaotian secretly frowned , I thought: "What's the matter? Could it be that they are too knowledgeable and my words are too polite?"

There was a sneer from the crowd, and someone said in a teasing tone: "Master Dianshi, your way of doing things won't work here. Still watching and helping each other? The mountains are only so high, the forests are only so deep, and the land is only so big. There are only a few rivers, and if you have mine, you won’t have mine, so how can we not fight or fight?"

Another person said: "The world is peaceful? If it weren't for the fact that our tribe and their tribe have always been in peace, how could we be sworn enemies? Our tribe and their tribe have many conflicts and disputes. We and them Can we be friends?"

"Those who work with their minds rule others, and those who work with their strength rule others? Are you going to drop your book bag with us? Good! Then please show us how to use your heart to rule our strength!"

The second-generation ancestors Hun Xiucai, who had been silent for a long while, showed hostility on their faces, and slowly approached Ye Xiaotian.

A cluster of knives slowly rises...
